I tried the Dolphin Engine on our performance test and it only scored 12. I sent them an email to see if they could improve it.

Chrome for iOS is an interesting one - it scores around 31-33 on our iPad 2, which is better than PhoneGap, but worse than Safari. Chrome for iOS has a slower javascript engine like PhoneGap, but I think it has hardware acceleration, which explains the result. It was perfectly playable so it seems promising.

Meanwhile Chrome for Android has disabled GPU acceleration on my HTC Sensation. Argh! So Chrome is now faster on iOS than on Android!

You can allow images to be used cross-domain if the server sends the same header mentioned in the AJAX manual entry.

It is odd that only using a few sprite sheets wouldn't work, but I noticed you're using the Canvas plugin. It could be a bug or memory leak in that plugin - but we can't support third-party plugins since it's not our code. If you think this is a Construct 2 bug, please report a bug without using any third party plugins to prove it's a problem in C2 itself, but I would strongly recommend you still approach this a different way or use a different tool, because none of the systems you are using (C2, the browser, the GPU, etc.) are designed to work well this way. If you're trying to make a 3D engine then Construct 2 is not a suitable tool for this, so we may not even be able to fix bugs that occur when trying to make a 3D game in Construct 2. Sorry!

aridale, I was actually talking about the rendering in the game - I set those project settings, exported the .capx, and it rendered correctly. The 1px padding between animation frames in the sprite sheet itself is by design, and does not affect rendering providing you set those project settings.

It's not a bug, it's the same seaming problem you get with tiling any sprites. Lots of users encounter this: you need to set Point sampling and enable pixel rounding in project properties, and it fixes it. I agree it's annoying it only shows up in export, but that's just an odd side effect of spritesheeting I guess.

Hmm... I'm worried this could subtly break other things. I've implemented the fix for the next build though, we'll see how it goes.

2009 is still a pretty old driver. If that's really the newest they've got for you, and it doesn't work, you should complain to Intel - Construct 2 is working correctly, but Intel's driver is broken.

Oh, I was wrong, the bug happens whether you enable minify or not. So it was the same bug after all!

Looks like this bug - exporting with minify enabled is broken in r96. Problems are to be expected with beta releases - if you want to avoid bugs like this, stick to stable releases. Should be fixed in the next build anyway.
